There's no sure thing in science, and people who say there is are either paid to do it orimbeciles. Interesting study, thanks.

Professors get tenure, so that they can afford to learn from beingimbeciles, and when they're young and cocky, sometimes imbecilicfollows. They do pay for fraud, though, and I am afraid that's NOT whythis article was retracted -- can't find the reason -- says"provisionally accepted". The article, itself, says it was printed.Maybe it'll get more electronic exposure than it did on paper.

Somebody estimated that 73.6% of statistics are made up. I say thatdepends on how you estimate in-person statistics. It is much less thanthat in PubMed articles. Tilted and skewed the statistics might be: Ifanyone calls you on why, then you better be prepared. A lot morecertainty is in Physics. With Psychology and Biology, a ninety-fivepercent confidence interval is required of you. With Physics, it'supwards of ninety-nine percent.

Once the product gets to sales personnel...well, the statistics becomeburied. I had Chickenpox, so a Shingles vaccine would be a redundantwaste of my time. NHS told me something different, though.
